MPS3638A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MPS3638A from ON Semiconductor is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) suitable for switching applications. It features a collector-emitter voltage of -25V and a continuous collector current of up to -500mA.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 20 to 100 depending on the operating conditions, and a collector-emitter saturation voltage as low as -0.25V. The transistor has a gain-bandwidth product of 150MHz, indicating its suitability for moderate frequency applications.

 

Packaged in a TO-92 (TO-226) through-hole package, the MPS3638A operates across a wide temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. Its thermal resistance is 200°C/W junction-to-ambient and 83.3°C/W junction-to-case.

 

This device is available in Pb-free packaging. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification circuits where a PNP transistor is required.
